Meet the Girls

Root + Bud was born from a friendship long before it was ever a business. We’ve been inseparable for years, and after photographing weddings together for over a decade, we’ve found our rhythm — the kind that makes couples feel instantly comfortable, relaxed, and fully themselves.

We’re different in all the right ways, and that’s exactly why this works.

Sarah is the quiet magic — laid back, observant, a mama of four. She catches the subtle stuff: the hands, the glances, the in-between moments that feel like memories. She’s the Root — steady, grounding, soft.

Elise is the spark — outgoing, warm, a mama of three. She brings the energy, the ease, the laughter, and keeps everything flowing. She’s the Bud — vibrant, welcoming, full of life.

Together, we’re yin and yang. Calm and hype. Detail and big picture. Best friends who love what we do — and love doing it side by side.

Ten years of weddings. A lifetime of friendship.
We’d be honored to tell your story next.
